I'm Almost Ready..............

I just need to buy a couple more gift cards & stop at the bank & pick up some cash. Oh, and wrap Arhianna's gifts. Other than that....I'm ready for Christmas! Tonight I made 2 batches of Paula O's toffee, 3 batches of Joahaeyo's sugared nuts, 1 batch of a friend's caramels recipe & a batch of snowballs. Only set the smoke alarm off once! Wed. evening my son is arriving from out of state for the holidays with his girlfriend. So my Christmas present will be here soon!

Mariah & José say Merry Christmas too!

Mariah & Jose look might spiffy! :tree:
Love the picture. You are a dynamo of activity.
I would love to have a toffee recipe - need to make a couple more gifts yet.
I just joined the list recently and so don't know if it's possible or if so how to
find the toffee recipe you referred to in your post.

Enjoy your present. Happy Holidays!

It seems that every big holiday I prepare for, I find OTHER things to do that sidetrack my present TO-DO list. Like I'll clean the kitchen, see things disorganized in a cabinet and spend the next hour changing it up. I'll never get done at this rate.
You're doing brilliantly! :D :clappurple:

Very happy holidays to you :santa2:
It sounds like you are in good shape for Christmas.
Enjoy your present. It even looks like the furbabies are ready for Christmas too.
Merry Christmas.

Do the dogs go crazy over your son being home?

I don't know about cooking, but all my liquor/beer/wine has been bought! :wink:

Oh yeah. He co-owns José with me & José lived with him for the 1st 15 months of his life, coming here every so often for a week or 2 for training. Not only that but they know as soon as they see or hear Jeff that they are going to get alot more time out of the kennel & in the family room. He loves having a dog around & really misses having a sheepdog. He used to have 3 & also grew up with one.

My baking & candy making are all done. My friend sent me a "to-die-for" recipe for carmels. The cooking will take place starting tomorrow. Jim & Jeff both like to cook. We went grocery shopping to get all the good stuff...scallops, lasagna ingredients, taco soup, 2 hams (1/2 tavern for my other son's where we will spend Christmas day & 1/2 a spiral sliced for Christmas evening at relatives) & I pick up the standing rib roast Thursday! I am seeing my scale inch up just thinking about it all! 8O
It sounds like you have a wonderful Christmas ahead of you. Love your two Christmaspaws.
Would you be willing to share the recipe for carmels? I was just on the internet looking for one. I have one now but I really don't like it that well.
:pupeyes:
Sounds awesome Marilyn!!! I'm sure I saved that map to your house - I'll bet it's still in the car ... Jen, grab your iPad, ROADTRIP!!!

I'm taking a break from my wrapping marathon... :phew:

It's the final check for making sure I have the right presents for everyone, and all are accounted for!

Todd's out ice fishing, so I get the TV, some flavored coffee and all the lounging dogs :D :D :D :D

Then tonight our therapy dogs visit the hospital and spread hugs and cheer to the patients. What a nice day!!
Toffee recipe will be posted in the Cooking forum in a few minutes.....

After I find it.
